205. One month today

Haha my title sounds like something I would write if I was In a relationship but alas I am not. I have however been in grande prairie for a month today. Man time flies. It's funny to think that one month ago I was on my way here in tears because of all the people I was leaving behind. In this month I have found out a lot about myself I guess u can say. I mean I have found out how tolerant I am with lazy people at work, and how much I can do before I crack. I've also found out who my real friends back home are which is sweet because it's obvs good to know that when I come back these champs will still be there. In this month I have gotten a promotion at work, I watched watoto with someone who said they would never step foot in a church. I've danced like a champ. Met up with the Brendan's. Hung out with Ashley and my cousins, been on a straight 10 hour road trip. And yeah had some adventures at Starbucks like a champ I've had Skype dates with Jenna and jray, braeden, Taelor and Alex, Nicky, Natasha, Gabbi, Becca, Jenae and my life group. I've was able to watch wf online and that was awesome. But ya I'm not sure what's next for me. Let me tell ya, the money is good, and I'll have the opportunity to potentially become assistant, but ya I'm just hopeful that I can pursue what God wants for me. But until next time. See ya champs!

204. Cool bro.

Gah. If only u knew that I was just as choked as you were. Sorry pal.

203.Tonight we are young.

So pretty much it's been a gongshow out here. Which is pretty swell. I got Brendan who is AWESOME, and we hang out when we can, which is sweet. Done some pretty random things, seen some pretty random movies, got a parking ticket once haha. What a guy. And I have a sweet co worker Ashley whose like the total opposite of me and it's sweet. Pretty much a gongshow whenever we work together. Oh life at garage. Haha and I just met her boyfriend Tyson who btw has the best name, but he's awesome. Can't wait for some pretty awesome Adventures with these cool cats.

202. tis the life in the prairies.

So basically this has been somewhat of an adventure and somewhat of a bore. i got promoted to keyholder a week after i got here. yay me! haha but then again, it was partially because i know how to do everything and partly because my keyholder and assistant manager quit. Its pretty sweet, but now i work 40 hours a week, which is brutal. oh and funny fact, i bailed on ice, so now my whole body hurts.

Besides that eventfulness, my cousin and her friend Garrett are currently doing homework, and they cant focus. So far, they have had chats about the following: fun fact friday, natalies bunny, church, not being dedicated, natalies nieces and nephew, jehovahs witnesses, mormans, gyms, me being a christian (calling me sweet salvation), sweatpants friday, spandex thursday, and watermelon wednesday. ya guys ya. this is happening. everything and anything besides their homework, which is based on hitler. gong show.

oh church this morning was interesting. yay for hymns. but seriously. hymns. its all good i have a plan people. church hopping next week, until i find somewhere i like. good times.

201. A letter to my hubby

Oh hey there future husband,
Just wanted you to know that I'm praying for you. You are everything I want and need, and I'm excited for our future together. Thanks for always standing behind every decision I make whether good or bad. You are my rock! I love you!
-Paula

200.Oh hey there new chapter in my life

Alright so I have been in grande prairie for almost a week! And wow haha I don't even have the words to say. It's been very testing recently. I mean I came here with the intention to not make friends because I didn't want to focus my time here on hanging out. But anyways I wanted to come here to work and that was about it. I wanted to come here and save money to go and pursue my dream of being a youth pastor. Why? Because I can. Haha but alas this has been an adventure so far. My co workers are pretty cool, so that's a plus. And I have had some awesome adventures with my friend from back home which is sweet. But what kills me inside the most is the fact that there is NOTHING to do here. Nothing. It's boring. Like brutally boring. I almost went and played bingo with seniors. ya. Haha. Luckily, I live up the street from a Starbucks which is neat, so I can go there whenever. I'm really missing back home, but the reality is that God clearly brought me here with a reason and a purpose and I'm sure I'll find out soon what that is. Getting married? Bahaha just kidding! But I love and miss u champs!
